The former professor explained that critical race theory not only takes away the root of academia, but creates a “hostile learning environment” for students and teachers.

In a 5-2 vote tonight, the Faribault Public School Board voted to require masks in schools when transmission rates are above certain levels in accordance with CDC guidelines for schools.

Almost a month ago, the school board adopted COVID-19 protocols that strongly encouraged but did not require masks.

Several people have spoken in favor of the mask requirement and several people have spoken against before the board votes.

It was almost half an hour after the meeting started before the school board meeting began as some members of the public refused to wear a mask.

The school board took two breaks to ask people to mask themselves in the district building in accordance with their COVID-19 protocols.

Eventually, people complied.

The school board also voted to rescind the district incident command committee from establishing COVID protocols at the committee’s request. Superintendent Todd Sesker told the board the 35-person committee hopes to stay in place as an advisory committee.

The ultimate protocols must be implemented by the school board.

Board chair Chad Wolff read the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s recommendation for schools adopted by the board’s action.

The recommendations were included in the school board kit and are as follows:

Face cover:

For Kindergarten to Grade 12 students, staff, visitors, and volunteers, the CDC Transmission Matrix will be used to determine when masks are highly recommended or required based on the county’s seven-day case rate. Rice per 100,000 inhabitants.

• Masks will be STRONGLY RECOMMENDED indoors for anyone 5 years of age and older if transmission of COVID-19 in Rice County is “low” (0-9 cases per 100,000 population) or “moderate” (10 -49 cases per 100,000).
• Masks will be MANDATORY indoors for anyone aged 5 and over, regardless of vaccination status, if transmission is “substantial” (50-99 cases per 100,000) or “high” (greater than or equal to 100 cases per 100,000).

Changes from recommended to required (or vice versa) will be made after case rates remain at the upper (or lower) level for at least seven consecutive days.

Level of transmission Low Moderate Substantial High
Case for 100,000 Spread Spread Spread Spread
0-9.99 10-49.99 50-99.99 ≥100

School buses

Wearing a face cover is MANDATORY by all staff and students traveling in school buses and other vehicles as part of educational programs (e.g. other activities, high school athletics, etc.) in accordance with the decree. Federal CDC.

The following face coverings are acceptable:

• Paper or disposable mask;
• Face mask made of fabric;
• Scarf;
• Neck warmer;
• Bandana;
• Religious face cover, and
• Medical grade masks and respirators.

Council members Richard Olson and Casie Steeves cast the dissenting voices. Olson said he didn’t trust the CDC or the Minnesota Department of Health because they have been “all over” on the matter.

Steeves said trust was not an issue with her, but she felt the best thing for her family was to let them make the decision.

Wolff said ahead of the vote that it was a very difficult decision, but he would vote for the CDC’s recommendations so that students can be as safe as possible and stay in school.

Board member Jerry Robicheau introduced the motion and John Bellingham supported the implementation of the CDC schools recommendations.

Robicheau echoed Wolff in stating that if it saves “a life,” it’s worth it.

Man, I feel old when I see this but it’s interesting.

It is the opening of the eyes.

McCabe spent eight years as a varsity baseball coach at the University of Kansas, but the life of still being on the road as a newlywed wanting to start a family wasn’t exactly what it was for. was waiting. “Coach at D1 level, my main responsibility was to recruit so I was on the road all the time. In my last year of training, I spent over 100 nights in a hotel room. I thought it wasn’t for me. I wanted to be more present and available to my family, so I made the difficult decision to leave coaching for an administrative role. ”In doing so, McCabe landed at Parish Episcopal where he enjoyed watching each program grow and develop into. something big.

What awaits us for 2021-22?

With the 2020-21 season being at an unprecedented time, a lot has changed. Schools had to adapt their daily routines, which meant that everyone else did too: students, teachers, sports departments, coaches and even sports directors. “We’re just hoping to get back to some sense of normalcy,” McCabe said. “I would say last year I was very happy that we were able to complete all of our seasons. Now it was under a lot of restrictions and protocols that we had to follow, but we were able to get through and I was happy about it for our kids. “

With such an out-of-normal experience, it’s easy to look forward to the season ahead. full capacity for outdoor events – for indoor events. Getting back to that environment that we all love to see in athletics. In the end, I’m just delighted to see our athleticism compete again. ”

Aims and strengths of parish athletics

While winning the most matches and championships is important to many people who play sports or work in sports, McCabe says it’s a little different in Parish. “I know hanging banners and winning championships is good – and that will always be our ultimate goal – but honestly, it’s more about the children’s experience. We want to have a positive experience for our children. Which means that we all want them to have an opportunity. “

For McCabe, what’s important is to remember that not every athlete who crosses his path wants to continue working in the sport. In fact, if you talk to many athletes or ask them what they want to specialize in in college, a lot of them have a story about someone in their life who has impacted them so much that they want to make a difference. similar career – many say sports medicine, dentistry, business, and more. “Not all of our athletes aspire to be professionals or play in college,” added McCabe. “Some just like to be with their friends and peers. Some just like to compete. We’re a small school, so we’re not cutting kids and things of that nature, so we want to give them an opportunity.”

Recognizing that some students aspire to play in college and hopefully a professional career, McCabe added that another of Parish Athletics’ key goals is to give their athletes the best chance to do so by providing them with everything they could need to be successful on and off the court or the court. “We try to bring together the best coaching staff possible, provide the best equipment and facilities, and we try to provide the best possible environment for them to thrive.”

To be a department that continues to provide great experiences for its students, it takes a lot of hard work and determination on the part of everyone involved. There is no doubt that McCabe continues to go above and beyond for parish athletics as well as for any students who cross his path – because of that you can see the highlights as soon as you walk through the gym doors or the doors. the fields. For McCabe, the strengths of parish athletics can be summed up in one word: “Resilience.”

“We are one of the smaller TAPPS 6A schools and we compete in this division, so our children had a choice to make: we could either make every excuse to be a smaller school with fewer children playing against bigger schools that beat on us OR we can figure out how to get harder in terms of skills, in the weight room, mentally and all around figuring out how to do it. “

That his athletes continued to show the resilience to play against bigger schools is something McCabe could be very proud of. “Since switching to 6A, all of our teams have been competitive in all areas. I’m most proud of it. “

Best memories and benefits of work

“Personally, having the opportunity to be the athletic director and support 22 programs is the best,” McCabe told VYPE. “First and foremost, I will always be just grateful for this opportunity.” Working for a sports program like Parish where all the athletes show up every day with the determination to succeed can bring back many great memories. McCabe can share some of his favorite memories between athletic achievements and professional achievements. “Professionally: Seeing as much success as I’ve been able to see with all of our programs; it doesn’t just mean wins and losses. I feel like we’ve grown stronger in my nine years. I think that we hired better coaches and improved our facilities. Honestly, we approved in all areas. “

“Of course there are teams that have done special things over the years,” McCabe said as he entered the sporting event aspect of his favorite memories, “but I don’t think he is. just identify one or the other because I think collectively they all did a great job. Everyone got better. “

With so many fond memories, it’s not hard to see the benefits of coming to work every day. “First, I love sports, so I can come to work every day and do something I love. Second, I help kids do something they love and have a passion for. that there are a lot of administrative tasks that I do throughout the day, I can also attend all their training and games. I can watch them succeed. I become a big fan. It is a lot of fun because honestly , I don’t feel like coming to work; I feel like coming to play every day. “

Learn from students

When you work in education, whether as a teacher or working to improve the lives of athletes in a school, one of your main jobs is to help teach students. Teaching them doesn’t necessarily mean talking about basic subjects like math, science, history, etc., but it can also be about life. At the end of the day, you realize that as much as you have taught the students, they are teaching you too. This turned out to be true for McCabe.

“I’m going to talk about it like since the pandemic hit because seeing everything through their eyes is different,” McCabe began. “As an administrator, we need to put protocols in place and do whatever we can to keep everyone safe while continuing to move an event or game forward. However, it’s interesting to watch the kids navigate through this because they’re still just kids and they’re going to do what we tell them. They probably don’t like wearing masks, but they do anyway. What’s interesting is the fact that they’re still kids at the heart of everything: they ‘they keep talking, they keep playing, they joke and they still do whatever they normally would – they just do it within the parameters that we gave them. “

With the ability to keep having fun even despite what will surely go down in history as one of the toughest seasons, athletes across the country have had a lot to teach the adults around them. “What I learned is that maybe I highlighted the pandemic on its impact on me, my family and the sports department, it’s refreshing to see the kids behaving as normally as they are. can act. It’s a reminder that at the end of the day, you have to do what you have to do to keep moving forward. “

The Episcopal Parish School as well as the sports department will continue to move forward this year as well as many years to come thanks to the resilience of their students, but also thanks to strong people in leadership like Brett McCabe.
